Synopsis:
The story follows two schoolgirls, Yeo-jin (Ji-min Kwak) and Jae-yeong (Min-jeong Seo). In order to raise money for their trip to Europe, Jae-yeong works as a prostitute while Yeo-jin sets up clients and manages the money. The two have very different views on what they are doing. Jae-yeong is happy to sleep with men for money, imagining herself as a modern incarnation of Vasumitra, a legendary prostitute who converted men to Buddhism through the act of sex. She seems to enjoy her work and is happy to form relationships with the men she meets.
Yeo-jin, on the other hand, feels dirty at being involved, jealous of the feelings Jae-yeong has for her clients, and guilty about the fact that it is her friend who is selling herself. However, after a tragic accident, Yeo-jin is forced to confront her feelings and to reassess her passive role. Things get worse when her father discovers what she is doing and, unable to accept his daughter’s actions, takes matters into his own hands.
